Customizing Display

Using Studio I am able to customize the display to some degree. I would like to do more such as create a display field with Firstname+" "+Lastname, add a column so it’s three, rather than 2 columns, and more.
Where can I learn to do some more advanced customization?

Hi,

I haven’t done something like that myself, so I’m not certain where would be best to begin.

However, I have found a few links that may provide you with some information:

The above links all deal in customizations of the List View in different ways.

Hopefully that gives you a good starting point!

Some good info there. Thank you.
Many of the posts refer to files that don’t exist in the /custom/modules folders. For example
custom/Extension/modules/Accounts/Ext/LogicHooks/ListViewHighlight.php
My installation doesn’t have a /LogicHooks folder under /Ext. There is only /Ext/Vardefs

I am interested in customizing the way the screen looks. All the doublespacing and wide columns make for a LOT of whitespace. Is there a file or folder that controls the way the Contact Display screen looks?
